I just feel like I can’t breathe
Want to close my eyes
Go into a deep sleep
Forget everything and everyone
My chest feels heavy
I just can’t breathe
I can’t
Fucking
Breathe
I
Can
Not
Breathe
Why
Can’t
I take a breath
Slow my brain down
My hands are shaking
I’m mentally exhausted
And
All
I
Want
To
Do
Is
Breathe
I don’t know what to say
Other than I’ll be okay
I smile during the day
At night tears run down my face
My body and mind are numb
I can’t focus on school
Feel so dumb and out of place
Counting the stars in outer space
I’m on a different planet
Pluto, one that no longer exists
I’m just lost
Desperate to feel bliss
Weed is my friend
The only one to mend the pain
I’m gonna go insane
I don’t know who to blame
I blame life
Out of luck
I’m just stuck with a poor family
Who has nothing in life but each other
An In debt, and occupied mother
And a brother who calls me a slut
But for what
Why do I have the life I have
Working and studying like a slave
Wanting nothing more than to crawl back into my cave
Close the door
Turn off the lights
End this fight with myself
An ongoing battle
School and work vs my sanity
This life not as great as I hoped it would be
Trying so hard to stay positive
I just lost all reason to live
